He is buried in the "Betsey Graham Graveyard" according to the TURNBO CHRONICLES on the Ozark Co Genweb site. (See notes for Lewis Clarkston for complete details.) Turnbo states that James was blind in one eye from an accident in Illinois when James was but a boy. "Jim Clarkson was the first settler here. His wife was named Polly and they had two girl children whose names were Nancy and Elizabeth. One morning at day break in war times 7 men on horse back crossed the creek near where the roller mill dam is now and charged up to the log cabin occupied by Clarkson and his family and compelled Mr. Clarkson to go with them to a glade on the side of a hill near where the Lutie Road now passes and near ¼ mile from the creek where they halted and shot him to death and rode on. " Since James and his father Lewis died within months of each other, it may be that they were both victims of a feud that carried over from the Civl War troubles of southern Missouri.
